I love Hilton but he doesn't really seem to be that good in the free safety role. None of the guys seem to make any real big impact plays at that position. So maybe they should simplify it and just put Nick Scott back there. Let him concentrate on one area and let Dax and Hilton be the guys coming up we are asking to make big plays tackling and in coverage.
Hilton's snaps with a safety look are so rare that it has to be part of an exotic look they throw in once in a while. He is averaging two snaps a game as a safety with the vast majority of his snaps coming as nickel corner. I would argue that Hilton is already being used exactly as you described.
